Dark blue is unusual for a portable air conditioner, and it keeps this 44-lb unit from reading as an appliance parked in the corner of a living room. The compressor carries an 8000 BTU ASHRAE and 5300 BTU SACC rating for around 230 square feet, with 290 cubic meters of airflow per hour through a louver that moves 90 degrees vertically and 60 degrees horizontally. Cool, dry and fan modes are available, dry mode taking out 40 pints a day, and two fan speeds cover the difference between a mild evening and a hot afternoon. The setpoint runs 60.8 to 89.6 degrees Fahrenheit with noise at or below 55 decibels. The cabinet is 13 inches wide, 13 inches deep and 27.5 inches tall; the exhaust hose reaches 62 inches and the cord 6 feet.
